I felt like driving my car into a fuking brick wall this morning lol

[GuineaDago585]

Not srs but semi srs. Just started raging in traffic on my way to work. Thinking about how instead of being trapped on busy suburban commercial roads, driving past soulless strip malls, on my way to the depressing office park, I could be outside touching grass on the two feet God gave me, breathing fresh air and enjoying this beautiful spring day. Living like a human fuking being.

Too bad I have to waste this once in eternity existence being a wage slave, actively decaying my spirit while contributing nothing to the world around me. I’m just a fuking waste of space.

[Voidgaze]

Take off from work.

I did. Fuk that chit.

[tripod29]

Bro....turn off U2. That will instantly make your commute into to your cage more tolerable

[AlfBundy]

Brutal

[Paul Kreul]

Worry about nothing
Pray about everything OP

Grass is not that much greener on the other side srs

You think you'd do all those cool chit like go to a park and just chill enjoy the calm nature and chit but it's not reality for most people

For instance I wokeup hungover af, started gaming for a couple hours, and might go grab some Mcds and end the day with fapping and more alcohol

You could've very easily woken up an hour earlier and do those things you mentioned but you made excuses. It ain't much different even when you have 24 hours a day to yourself if you can't make those habits in any situation

NEET life is calling you pal. You're just not picking up

I don’t drink alcohol or play video games. When I have free time, I am productive. I have fantastic weekends and miserable weeks. My wiring is just incompatible with wage slaving.

During the lockdowns I was lifting 6 days per week, making music, reading, listening to financial literacy podcasts, going on long walks/bike rides, spending invaluable time with family, reconnecting with old friends, life was fkin AMAZING. I wasn’t just some NEET pr0n addict wasting away in my room. I became the BEST version of myself (100% ded fkin srs). It’s been a downward spiral ever since going back into the office.

You still haven't explained why you can't get a roommate and stop eating take out to save money and join the sheet metal workers union.

You have a clear out that you just refuse to take.

[OGfrom06]

So what are you gonna do about it?

Probably nothing.

So you deserve it.

[TheScapeGOAT]

Were you driving in Brooklyn today, brah? There were a bunch of morons out today. More than usual lol.

You should replace one of those hobbies with producing something of value. Your only out is entrepreneurship

OP has a clear out, he says he has a close friend in the sheet metal union and is a shoe in for the job.

His excuse is that he can't deal with the pay cut, but he rents by himself and spends an insane amount of money on groceries and take out.

He can make a change, he just doesn't want to and would rather complain on the misc every day.

yea i remember my life when I first started this lifestyle 7 years ago

I said and did all those things you mentioned

Hated drinking. Thought it was for bums
Thought gaming was for losers
Rarely fapped when going to school/work because semen retention keeps me calm and masculine
Cherry on top is the financial podcasts lol

Picking up on vices and making them a bad habit is way easier for people with loads of free time

Having a job keeps you in check enough to keep vices to moderation

I’ve explained it a handful of times. The financial sacrifice required just doesn’t work for me at this point in my life. I should’ve done it 5 years ago but I phucked up.

You haven't explained why you can't potentially cut your rent in half by getting a roommate and why you keep eating take out and spend so much on groceries

Aren't you like 27? Bruh

i guarantee you he said that same exact line 5 years ago

[BullittEV]

[FAPhaggot]

The rot life is like cotton candy, it gets old quick. It's fun for about 2-4 weeks and that's it.

Hedonism isn't the answer, brah. We've got to have more of a goal to work to.

[Omnivium]

You gotta quit that job brah. Find another job that's more tolerable

[MikeLowrrrey]

I remember during the Pandemic I was only going into the office 1 day a week. All projects was on hold. Was glorious LOL.

What line of work do you do? Can you find a WFH position? That's the least cuck as possible

[SandalwooodRose]

I feel like a dog in a crate at my job. I spend most of my life sitting at a desk doing nothing. I hate it and I can not find anything else to do.
Most of my time awake is just sitting at my desk doing basically next to nothing. I get paid enough to just get by, and there is no fulfillment. I have applied to other jobs but never get a response even with my bachelors degree and experience. Plus I feel like other jobs are just going to be the same thing. I feel like I am just wasting my life away staring at a computer screen all day.

I have no means to start my own business as I am not interested in anything enough to have an idea of what to even do. My only interest is exercising and even then I am not very consistent at it to do anything with that. I can not stand to just be at my computer all day. What should I look into? What do I even do?

This.

[MikeLowrrrey]

Work isn't honestly terrible, would just be better if we had more off days.

Expand the week to 8 days. 5 on, 3 off. Sounds silly, but that would be the perfect balance.

[Anachron]

I prefer 1 day on, 13 off. Sounds silly, but that would be the perfect balance.

[yabbayabba]

Not to make your feel worse, but I work from home and am taking half a day off for "mental health".

[John L]

Aren't you like 27? Bruh

The guy is 27, I believe rents a 1 BR apartment by himself (could cut that rent in half with a roommate), and said he spends like $800-$1000 a month on groceries (well over what we spend and it's me, my wife and a 2 year old). Also says he eats take out, which is brutally expensive.

If he got a roommate, shopped smarter (he prob buys expensive premade chit at the supermarket instead of cooking fresh meals from scratch), and stopped eating take out (you piss so much money away doing this), he would be able to handle the pay cut to enter the sheet metal union and tough it out for a couple years until he starts getting good pay.

He just doesn't want to, though.
